danger to the motor?
 

i just threw in my lsvtec and wanted to run it until i could bring it somewhere to get chipped and tuned, i was wondering if it would be safe to run stock injectors with a p05 ecu on it, i know the vtec wont kick in, but i just wanted something to get the car on the road, or would it even be ok to run the p05 with an safc and 450's? both are what i am considering, i just got done rebuilding the motor, these are the specs

t3/t4 57 trim
b16 head
je 9:1 pistons .20 over
eagle hbeam rods
fidanza flywheel
gsr oil/water pumps

what do you think?

DANGER! :1

Actually I have no clue :6 The p05 isn't made for 450cc injectors is it? Wouldn't it run rich? I would try to find a basemap or something to at least get you safely to a shop. I wouldn't try to go in boost...

Throw in the stock injectors and ECU with the wastegate open, drive to the place where you're getting it tuned, swap them and then tune it.

yeah i was going to use an safc.....

i wanted to try to find a way to break in the motor without running boost, can i just take the spring out of the tial wastegate? cause it wouldnt boost would it? it would just come out of the downtube right

Re: danger to the motor?
 

Yeah I guess you and the other guy posted at the same time, just run open wastegate like he said, you won't go into boost. He also had a good idea with putting injectors back in so you know it'll be safe until you get to the shop. You do have to reprogram for bigger injectors to run right or I think they'd be sprayin too much fuel.

no one answered the question yet, is it safe to run a p05 with stock injectors on an lsvtec?

edit: keeping in mind i know it wont activate vtec

if you wanna break the motor in right, you're not going to be able to do it in low rpm.

best bet is the AFC and 450's and run it up around 6000max with no vtec at the most.

but to answer your question...if you wanted to simply put in a stock ecu and injectors and baby it around, it will be fine, just keep it in low rpm. however you wont manage much of a break in that way.
